The police once speculated that the murderer had an intention to kill Mingrui's mother and son. It stands to reason that the murderer should stop the murder when he achieves his goal.However, since Lu Fangnan's death, the murderer's mentality has also changed, thus turning the case into a serial murder case with a more terrifying nature.

It can be said that Lu Fangnan, as the first victim, was the beginning of the serial murder case.

——Game to Death

Chu Mi frowned as he looked at Lu Fangnan's message, and noticed that Lu Fangnan's residence was also very subtle.

He lives in 403, which is next door to Mingrui's mother and son.

Shen Huaiyun looked at Chu Mie: "So you are a dead person now, but why are you not like Xu Ming in Mo Town? You have body temperature and pain, no matter how you look at it, you look like a living person?"

Chu Mie clenched his fist with one hand and felt his body: "It is indeed a human body."

"Didn't Lu Fangnan die in the previous serial murder case?" Shen Huaiyun pretended to be serious, then raised his hand and pinched Chu Mie's face, then smacked his lips and commented: "It feels good, if you live for 14 years If so, it should be more than 30 based on age, right?"

Chu Mie glared at him, and could only abruptly bring the topic back to normal.

Lu Fangnan was 22 years old when he died, but judging from his educational background, he did not go to university, but went to work shortly after graduating from high school.

He seems to live alone in this apartment, because his parents are working outside all the year round, and the grandfather who took care of him passed away two years before his accident, so Lu Fangnan is usually alone, which is rare. People who are not close to the local residents.

"What was Lu Fangnan's cause of death?"

Shen Huaiyun continued to scroll down: "He lost too much blood and died, and was stabbed seven times in his body, and the murder weapon was a relatively slender and sharp knife."

"Does Lu Fangnan have any enemies?"

Shen Huaiyun looked at Lu Fangnan's not much information and shook his head: "No, although Lu Fangnan is not close to people, he is not a mean person either. In my opinion, Lu Fangnan may be more transparent."

"Buzz-"

Shen Huaiyun saw a text message sent by He Fangchuan, clicked on it, looked at the text message and frowned for a while, and finally handed the phone to Chu Mie: "He said he got the police's list of suspects who killed Mingrui's mother and son, but the list It was a verbal inquiry, so it may not be that complete."

"It's good to get some news." Chu Mie took the phone and noticed the reason why Shen Huaiyun frowned just now when he saw the list: "Lu Fangnan is also on the list?"

"It should be said that he used to be here." Shen Huaiyun clicked on Lu Fangnan's name: "After all, he died not long after Mingrui's mother and son died."

Shen Huaiyun: "Let me ask Lu Fangnan why he is a suspect."

"It's getting late." Chu Mie glanced at the setting sun, "Let's go to 403 to see if there are any clues, and wait for the news from He Fangchuan."

"it is good."

Shen Huaiyun nodded, and after sending the text message, he followed Chu Mie to 404.He pried open the door of 403 as usual, then pushed the door open and entered.

Chu Mi looked at the room where there was almost nothing left, not knowing whether to feel a headache or to be thankful.The valuables in the room had been packed and taken away, leaving behind a sofa covered with a gray cloth, and the tape that isolated the scene remained on the floor.

Shen Huaiyun stepped forward and pinched a corner of the gray cloth, signaling Chu Mie to back away, then held his breath and lifted the gray cloth abruptly.

"Cough-cough-"

There was too much dust, Shen Huaiyun still accidentally choked a little dust into it.

Chu Mie patted Shen Huaiyun on the back, trying to help him slowly, but was stopped by Shen Huaiyun raising his hand: "I'm fine, let's get down to business first."

Chu Mie nodded, walked to the sofa, and looked at the large dark stains on the sofa, which were the blood stains he was most familiar with.

Chu Mie looked back at Shen Huaiyun: "Did Lu Fangnan die at home?"

"That's right, to be precise—" Shen Huaiyun looked at the blood stains on the sofa and said, "The scene of the first crime was Lu Fangnan's bedroom, but the reporter found Lu Fangnan's body downstairs behind the apartment .”

"So the scene of the first crime is 403, and the scene of the second crime is downstairs in the apartment? It's fine if the murderer killed Lu Fangnan, why did he throw the body downstairs?"

Shen Huaiyun explained: "If you have to insist on the purpose of throwing the body, the original view is that the murderer was warning and intimidating, because Lu Fangnan was not transported downstairs, but pushed directly to the apartment."

Is this killer crazy?The movement of pushing people down was not small, was he afraid that he would not be discovered?

Shen Huaiyun noticed Chu Mie's doubts, and continued to tell him about Lu Fangnan: "It is precisely in this arrogant and sloppy manner that the police feel that the murderer's mentality has changed. Because the death scene of Mingrui's mother and son is not like that. It had been planned for a long time, but the death of Mingrui's mother was particularly tragic. It is likely that the murderer had held grudges for a long time and impulsively killed Mingrui's mother, but he didn't expect Mingrui to be at home, so he killed Mingrui too. "

"But Lu Fangnan's death was obviously premeditated."

Chu Mie turned around and went to Lu Fangnan's bedroom. Seeing the blood in the bedroom almost splattered, he could imagine how horrific the crime scene was.

Almost everything in the bedroom has been emptied, except for the cardboard boxes in the corner.

Chu Mie walked to the box and knelt down, turned his head and asked Shen Huaiyun with a smile, "Do you think there will be a diary or something in the box?"

"Generally there will be." Shen Huaiyun leaned against the wall and smiled: "But we are not making a movie, so how can there be so many diaries to read? Besides, who is a serious person who writes diaries?"

Someone from Chu who liked to write a diary when he was a student: "..."

Chu Mie had no choice but to open the cardboard box, looked at it, and waved in Shen Huaiyun's direction: "Come here, although there is no diary, but there is something else."

The things in the box were very miscellaneous, including Lu Fangnan's high school textbooks and an old tape recorder—the kind with tapes.

Chu Mie found other tapes in the box, and connected the tape recorder to the wall socket, but the tape recorder did not respond at all.

"I don't know if the tape recorder is broken or the room has lost power."

"Power failure? It's easy to judge." Shen Huaiyun pressed the switch of the bedroom light.

The light didn't come on.

Shen Huaiyun smiled meaningfully: "It seems that only 404 where you live provides water and electricity."

Chu Mie didn't speak, and continued to rummage through the boxes.

Then he took out a stack of CDs from the textbook, looked at the content on the CD, and silently stuffed the CD back into the textbook.

"So?" Seeing that his reaction was very interesting, Shen Huaiyun looked at him curiously, and then burst out laughing, and patted Chu Mie's shoulder pretending to be old-fashioned: "Oh, don't be shy. Everyone They are male compatriots, mere pornography is nothing."

Chu Mi glanced at him: "Do you think I'm not human?"

Although Chu Mie doesn't look obvious, he is also a normal boy. Naturally, he watched pornographic movies with his companions when he was a student.

Shen Huaiyun was a little surprised, and then laughed again: "Then why did you hide the CD again?"

"Lu Fangnan is dead. After death, others will check the treasured pornography, isn't it a bit too dead?"

Shen Huaiyun clicked his tongue, nodded and said, "That's true."

Maybe the important things were sealed up in the files by the police or taken away by their parents as relics. Chu Mie searched for a long time but couldn't find anything else.

"It seems that there is nothing worth looking for here." Chu Mie straightened up and patted the ashes in his hands: "Let's go, let's go and see other rooms."

"Don't look at it." Shen Huaiyun shrugged: "The other rooms have also been emptied, and there is basically nothing left."

Chu Mie nodded, followed Shen Huaiyun out of Lu Fangnan's bedroom, and returned to the living room.

"Buzz-"

Shen Huaiyun took out his mobile phone from his pocket: "He Fangchuan should have a new clue, let me take a look."

Chu Mie nodded, his eyes casually fell on the sofa in the middle of the living room, and then followed the sofa to the balcony next to the living room.

The balcony is not equipped with anti-theft windows, and the sliding door is opened to the balcony, and the height of the guardrail is only at the waist of a person, so adult men can easily climb out of the balcony.

Chu Mie didn't know why, but couldn't help but pushed open the door and came to the balcony.

There were bloodstains on the railing of the balcony. It seemed that someone's hand was on the railing, and finally he could only let go of his hand weakly, and was still dragged into the endless abyss.

Chu Mie approached the railing and looked out of the balcony: the balcony is protruding, so you can see the balconies of other residents even when you step out of the balcony.

Chu Mie intentionally looked towards the balcony of 404 by accident. As long as he leaned half of his body against the railing, he could even see part of the layout of the living room of 404.

"Chu Mie, the news is out!"

Hearing the sound, Chu Mie stood upright, away from the railing, and looked at Shen Huaiyun.

"Lu Fangnan was in Room 403 the night Mingrui's mother and son died. He was supposed to go to work that day, but he took sick leave because he was unwell."

Chu Mie was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head abruptly and leaned out half of his body against the edge of the railing again.

Shen Huaiyun didn't expect Chu Mie's reaction to be like this, and walked up to Chu Mie's side in surprise, imitating his appearance and stretching out half of his body. After realizing the reason for Chu Mie's reaction, he was silent for a second, and pulled Chu Mie back. off the edge of the railing.

"The edge of the railing is a bit dangerous, don't keep leaning on it," he said.

Chu Mie nodded, looked at Shen Huaiyun with piercing eyes, and said firmly, "I think you should already understand?"

"Rather than saying that Lu Fangnan is a suspect, it's better to say that he might be an eyewitness. So the murderer didn't pick him randomly, but a pre-ordered prey."

"But Lu Fangnan died too late." Shen Huaiyun dug out Lu Fangnan's death information: "If the murderer had already guessed that Lu Fangnan was a witness, why didn't he kill Lu Fangnan as soon as possible, but Delay Mingrui's mother and son for a few months before killing him?"

Chu Mie didn't know that Lu Fangnan died so late. After all, the murderer would not easily let the witnesses go. If the witnesses knew something and told the police, it would be over.

"I have a few conjectures." Chu Mi covered the railing of the balcony with one hand, and said clearly: "The first one is that the murderer didn't know that Lu Fangnan was a witness at first, and then killed him when he found out by accident; and The other is that the murderer knew that Lu Fangnan was a witness for a long time, but for some reason, he was not in a hurry to kill him."

"However," Chu Mie paused, "I prefer the latter."

Shen Huaiyun raised his eyebrows, rubbed his chin and sighed: "It is true that the latter is more likely. After all, the murderer should also be a local resident. After killing the person, he will more or less inquire about the situation of the residents around 404. Lu Fangnan asked for leave to stay at home. There is no way to hide it."

"We are not professional criminal police. I don't believe the police can't think of anything we can think of." Chu Mie looked in the direction of the balcony and said it was speculative but his tone was very firm: "The reason why the murderer didn't do it right away may be that the police have been protecting him." Lu Fangnan, a few months later when the police were a little lax, they seized the opening and killed Lu Fangnan."

"Although Lu Fangnan was an eyewitness, he probably just witnessed the incident, but he didn't know who the murderer was, nor did he know any information that could determine the general direction of the murderer."

Shen Huaiyun answered, "Otherwise, the murderer would have been arrested and brought to justice, wouldn't he?"

He added: "This murderer is probably an indispensable character in the story of the dungeon. When I walked through the birch forest before, I just felt that the birch forest would make people lose their way, but it did not attack people. So rumors spread in the town The so-called missing person in the birch forest was probably killed by the murderer."

"There are no clues to find in the house." Chu Mie looked at the sky that had almost darkened: "It's already dark, let's see if we can get out of the birch forest."

Shen Huaiyun nodded.

The two left room 403 first, then took back the display from 404, and went downstairs and left the apartment with the display between them as before.

…………

"My guess was right."

Shen Huaiyun looked at the birch forest that was close at hand, took Chu Mie's hand and walked into the birch forest.

"Baabaa, we have already talked to Guan Qinyue about the two of us, so you don't have to pretend to be strangers like before, just get along normally."

"Okay." Chu Mie looked at Shen Huaiyun holding his hand tightly, and said softly, "Okay, I understand."

His gaze deviated and landed on the display screen sandwiched by Shen Huaiyun, his pupils shrank, and the smile that was about to rise in his eyes gradually sank,

"Hello, Shen Huaiyun—"

"Well, what happened?"

Shen Huaiyun paused, feeling inexplicably uneasy, and continued to walk forward, but was stopped by Chu Mie forcefully.

"The display is off." Chu Mie pointed to the completely black display: "It seems that it can't leave the apartment."

"It should be of great use, so let's put it back in the apartment and let me guard it."

Shen Huaiyun pursed her lips: "I'm worried about you being alone."

"It's okay, how could I be alone—" Chu Mie remembered that he died for no reason, so he could only swallow the words "no accident" and sighed: "Then what do you hope?"

Shen Huaiyun turned around and looked at him seriously: "If you have to go back, then we will go back together."

"At least with me here, you'll be fine."
